Used craft aster paint on my vintage caravan, it's been on about six years and looks as good as day one. First class paint in all ways.

Hi Old Iron, did you spray craftmaster or roller/brush it?

I have been looking round on the net for a good Epoxy Primer and have found a make that I want, we don't have a local paint shop anymore but there is one a short detour from my work commute. I stopped in there the other evening and low and behold they stocked the said paint, saved loads on postage. Just goes to show its good to look local as its not all just on the net!

Hi Old Iron, I ended up brush painting my lorry with craftmaster paint. Lovely stuff to paint with. I have put some photos on the forum in the Rootes pages if you take a look.

I painted my car using Craftmaster. I used cheap disposable rollers to apply and even coating, then laid it off with an expensive paint brush (supplied by Craftmaster). Cost me under £200 and I was pleased with the result, my car is not concours and never will be.

Minimal masking off or worries about overspray etc.

The result with rollers looks very good.
